ive never been impressed with the aw11 stock brakes Sad

admittidly ive never spent a *fortune* on pads (spell ebc Razz)

but with half decent pads bendix metal ive found the stock calipers were pretty poor.

what ive done is swapped the stock calipers for a set of ST185RC twin piston numbers. even with the same type of bendix pads in there they work orders of magnitiude better. and to boot its a straight bolt up job. only mod required is cut a little of the dust shild out, other then that they bolt straight up to the old hubs on the stock rotors. they work *MUCH* better Smile

that said if you want some bendix metal pads for the stock calipers ive got a set here that have been bedded in properly then the grand total of about 800km on them. normally about $75 will sell for $50.
pm me or phone if your are interested in the pads 0412 352522

other wise my suggestion would be the new calipers. set you back between $100-200 for a pair and about $100 for a set of bendix metal. throw some new fluid behind them and your laughing Smile
